I'm not a smoker, but does anyone have a cigarette? This is getting scary.

Greg & Mark, I must be a man of simple needs, (as long as one of them is a
V12 E Type). Hasn't anyone heard of "User Pay"? I will be keeping my sector
as simple as possible and applying the policy of "User Pay". This way you
can do what you want, eat what and where you want and stay where you can
afford. In addition to laying out the main route and an alternate thru my
sector I will also be supplying names and rates of the local Hotels that
respond, with one of them being the departure point as well as restaurants
in the area. I will also be setting up pre-arranged "Wine Tasting" at a
couple of the cottage wineries on the trip from Penticton to Vernon as that
is a short 100 KM trip. The tasting is free but you will pay for any
purchases while there.I would hope that everyone insures both themselves and
their vehicles for any and all possible "illnesses". I intend to have myself
covered while in the USA. I know that we would like to cover any and all
possibilities but this talk of liability and suing is starting to rattle and
unnerve me.
